Claude de Huchin produced a Biblia Sacra for Antoine Vincent also in the year 1567 while Jean Frellon issued a sixth edition in 1568 seemingly on his own. This fifth Frellon edition resembles the former editions but has maps and other illustrations which were not in previous versions. As early as 1553 woodcut illustrations adorned Frellons editions of the New Testament. This is a rare edition of the Biblia Sacra oft overlooked and not found in the usual references. OCLC locates two copies at Universitatsbibliothek at Heidelberg OCLC no. 315584645 and Columbia University OCLC no. 83326666. The edition is recorded in French Books III & IV 2011: No. 57420. These bibles were all the rage in 16th century Lyonnais print houses; most editions issued one right after the other; for example there is an illustrated Latin Bible printed by Guliel Rovilium in Lyon also in 1567.

It was a monumental production incorporating the biblical commentary of medieval Franciscan scholar Nicholas de Lyra 12701349 with the additions of Paul of Burgos ca. 13511435 and responses to the latter by Matthias Doering d. 1469 as well as the commentary of William the Breton ca. 11651225 on the Prologues of Jerome.

Nicholas de Lyras biblical gloss or Postilla encouraged much scholarly discourse throughout the Middle Ages and was frequently reprinted into the 16th century. This edition includes the famous woodcut of Ezekiels Vision and the various views and implements of Solomons Temple which were first printed by Koberger in 1481 with the complete commentary. This copy in an early German binding has a monastic provenance at Banz Abbey. ISTC ib00614000. Anton Koberger hardcover books

In 2006 sold at Sothebys London 11 April 2006 lot 2312. <br/><br/>Fifth folio edition of the Latin Bible as Biblia Utriusque Testamenti published by Robert Estienne 15031559 in 1556 but with the original edition of the new Latin translation and commentary on the New Testament by Theodore Beza 15191605; notably this edition appeared contemporaneously with the printing of John Calvins Psalms Commentary. Theodore Beza a French Reformed Protestant theologian and Calvinist produced one Latin and four Greek-Latin editions of the New Testament in his lifetime working carefully through extant Greek manuscript sources. Estiennes great glossed Latin Bible of 1556/57 thus contained the translation of the Old Testament by Dominican philologist Sante Pagnini or Pagninus 14701536 first printed in 1528. Based on the Hebrew Pagninis text is in the center of each page and Bezas translation from the Greek is in smaller type to the side with commentary and alternate readings underneath. The Estienne-Beza Latin Bible with its copious notes and ties to Calvinist theology was of considerable importance in the early modern era. The 20 woodcut biblical illustrations were first used in an Estienne edition of the Bible printed in Paris in 1540. This copy beautifully bound in a Dutch vellum enjoyed placement in one of the finest libraries in Britain from around the mid-18th century. See also Renouard 'Estienne' p. 87; cf.

17001002658London: Printed for Dan. Brown at the Black Swan and Bible without Temple-bar and Andr. Bell at the Cross-keys and Bible in Cornhil 1700. First edition of this verse translation of the Song of Songs by Joseph Stennett 1663-1713 the first important Baptist hymnwriter in England: "Thy Lips my Spouse that move with skill / Drops like the Hony-comb distil. / Hony and Milk's beneath thy Tongue / Which feeds the Weak as well as strong." In his scholarly preface Stennett is quick to assure readers that the Hebrew text is not about sexual desire despite appearances: "some have denied that Solomon wrote it by Divine Inspiration; and make his Design to be only that of celebrating his Amours with Pharoah's Daughter or some other person." The passion of the bridegroom and the bride is to be understood however as a divine allegory of Christ's love for his church the same "mystical Espousals" found in the 45th Psalm which Stennett also translates here.

1949CNJL314Cleveland and New York: The World Publishing Company 1949. Limited First Edition. Hardcover. Very good. Rogers Bruce. Two volumes the Bible one of 975 copies elephant folio size 942 pp. and Making of the Bible number 178 of 1875 copies quarto size 41 pp. The second folio Bible designed by Bruce Rogers this time for an American publisher his first was the "Oxford Lectern Bible" published in 1935 using the King James Version. No other book designer / typographer from the history of printing can claim to have designed two complete folio Bibles each one highly regarded. Bruce Rogers 1870-1857 American typographer who invented the "Centaur" tyepface based on the Renaissance-period printing of Nicolas Jenson is considered by many to be one of the greatest book designers of the twentieth century. He designed books for the Riverside Press Cambridge when he cut his first typeface "Montaigne" named for the first book it appeared in "The Essays of Montaigne" 1903; he designed "Centaur" while working as house designer for the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In 1916 he worked for the Cambridge University Press and a few years later returned to the U.S. where he met William Edwin Rudge and was employed by him at his Mount Vernon Press. During this time he also designed books for Harvard University Press and served as typographic advisor to Lanston Monotype. In 1928 Rogers returned to England where he produced what many have called "the most important and notable typographic achievement of the twentieth century" being his Oxford Lectern Bible. The present work was done during his later years but is no less formidable in both size and scope and essential to any collection of his work.<br/><br/>___DESCRIPTION: Original publisher's red cloth with gilt-stamped illustration to upper board lettered in gilt to backstrip top-edge gilt quarto volume in matching red cloth with similar gilt motif to upper board and gilt lettering to backstrip with original glassine jacket and housed in a blue paper slipcase numerous flourishes and initials vintage bookseller ticket on rear pastedown; types used include Fred Goudy's Deepdene Italic Forum and Oldstyle type paper is 74 lb. 75 percent white linen rag paper from Barcham Green Mill in England elephant folio size 19.25" by 14"; "Making of the Bible" quarto size 11.5" by 8.5" pagination: Bible i-vi vii-xxii xxiii-xxiv 1-941 942 1 colophon; Making of the Bible 1-4 5-19 20-41 limited first editions of both volumes with the folio being one of 975 copies and the accompanying quarto being number 178 of 1875 copies.<br/><br/>___CONDITION: A very good copy of the folio with some professional restoration to the backstrip/joints some minor rubbing at edges the binding with only light dustiness gilt is bright with a few rubbed spots and the interior clean other than some minor soiling to the endpapers free of prior owner markings one very short closed tear to the upper margin of the dedication page to King James; quarto fine overall with some extremely light wear to the joints at the head and tail of the spine its glassine wrapper alas fair only as the spine has perished and we only have the panels/flaps its slipcase very good plus sturdy with some overall wear.<br/><br/>___POSTAGE: Please note that this is an extremely large and heavy book and therefore additional postage will apply as the standard shipping charge will not cover costs; please inquire for details.<br/><br/>___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.
